"Google said on Saturday that Chinese authorities have approved its $12.5 billion purchase of Motorola Mobility Holdings, the last regulatory hurdle to a deal that would allow the world's No. 1 Internet search engine to develop its own line of smart phones." The main requirement from the Chinese government? Google needs to keep Android open and free for at least five years. I'm guessing that's the time Baidu needs to properly fork Android.

Interesting considering that we are talking about a US company buying another US company, seems like an internal matter and none of their business. Which is what the Chinese would be yelling at us about if we told them which companies they can buy in their own country.
